I cannot confirm that in Europe wider lenses are required. But I agree that the combo DA 16-45/4 and DA 50-200/3.5-5.6 is a very suitable and reasonably light travelling kit. This also considering (which has not been mentioned in the discussions) that having to change lenses is not always convenient as a tourist because of all impressions you get and the generally hectic situation in European cities. I keep my standard lenses for quiter situations in nature, though I use the FA 50/1.4 or FA 35/2 sometimes for low light, and one of both is for me a suitable third travelling lens.
